Simon6809 Turbo

2008/06/18

Simon6809-Turbo is an improved version of Simon6809, so I can run FLEX 6809 operating system.

This project is retired and shown for educational value.

Simon6809-Turbo grow out of a curiosity to run FLEX operating system.

This may be the first 8bit computer to have USB Host capability :)

As much as this design was powerful, it was complicated for somebody else to build due to use of GAL’s for address decoding and RAM bank support.
